This has nothing whatsoever to do with fertility treatments. [/quote]

Why is this abstract even linked here?  Testosterone is not an IF/IVF treatment!
OP, you do realize that not all women over the age of 35 required infertility treatments to become pregnant, correct?  Not even most of them.

I have a 5 month old DD who is the result of IVF/FET.  Yes, I am mid-30s, but the medical condition that resulted in my need to do IVF to conceive isn't AMA, it's PCOS.  Which I've had since a teenager.  If I'd tried to conceive straight out of college, I likely would have encountered the same issues.  In my years of pursuing infertility treatments, I met plenty of women in their 20s who were infertile.  Infertility isn't limited to the "older" crowd, and most "older" moms you encounter probably didn't need infertility treatment.  This assumption you have that, because the parents of these children are older, they must be the product of infertility treatments which affected their gender identities or sexual preference...that's a reach.
